AsianFest celebrates Asian American culture and showcases the talents of community performers, martial artists, and cultural organizations. Visitors experience culture through all senses with colorful performances, exhibits, demonstrations, crafts, and food. This lively event brings people together to experience and celebrate Asian cultures through a fun and engaging lineup of activities. Guests can explore a vendor fair featuring local businesses and student organizations, enjoy a variety of cultural performances, and check out an energetic breakdancing showcase

By highlighting Asian American voices and traditions, the event supports Fresno City College’s commitment to creating an inclusive, equity-centered campus. It’s an opportunity for the college and community to come together, learn from one another, and celebrate what makes the Central Valley diverse and vibrant, said Sue Yang, AsianFest Coordinator.  “It provides a fun family experience that nurtures community collaboration and builds lifelong friendships. It also enhances the ethnic pride and self-esteem of all the participating community members,” she added.
